Really big ceiling light that doesn't cost a fortune

[crossandcrosser]

Our bedroom has very high ceilings and a standard pendant looks ridiculous.
Initially I thought of a chandelier but the big ones are very expensive.
I think something white and modern would be a solution but I can't find anything. I'm looking for 1m diameter.
Any ideas?

[[http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/80146249/]] one is just under 1m across.

How about this from Ikea?

I have the Ikea pedant and it's great.

They are all great choices, thanks so much.
I love the feather one especially the 'clean with a hairdryer but value wise the Ikea is perfect.
MissB, is yours in a bedroom?

If you wanted a chandelier style one then BHS have quite a good selection. Some are half price. Like this. However, none are as wide as you want.

Thanks MrsC sadly none of the BHS ones are big enough for the room.

There's a very large ikea one that looks like a giant ball of Daisy's.
(Am on phone so can't link properly).
Have always wanted one but my rooms/ceilings have never fitted one in.
From memory they are sub £100.

Sorry - that's the same one that everyone else has told you about!

My DD has the ikea daisy one, looks grear

Bari 5 arm chandelier from Argos. Was £70 odd, I got it for £25ish. Looks fab.

Paper lanterns are a bargain option. I rather like them.

I think I'm sold on the Ikea one at £90. Does anyone know how much light it gives off?
Thanks very much for the suggestions.

What I would really love is a Lindsey Adelman chandelier, but $17,500 is slightly over budget

If you can find me that for the Ikea price strong I'm sold

Aren't they lovely? She does actually publish a few designs/instructions for building your own here but I'm struggling to find suppliers for the parts in the UK. Also - I don't have time and I'd probably electrocute myself and/or burn the house down.

It's in a barn entrance about 8ft from the ground, hung from a double height ceiling.

I would say that it gives off a good light for a bedroom - light enough but not too bright to be scary.

When it's on, it casts daisy like shadows on the walls which are very pretty.

Lindsey Adelman has instructions how to make hers (excluding handmade glass shades) on her website and there is a link to UK compatible set.

Ooh fruity! I hadn't spotted that grand brass have started doing a uk compatible kit. Thanks for pointing it out! I might have to go for that once we've got our new house a bit sorted.

You need to get on the BHS sale. Absolute bargains and gorgeos lighting
